A good novel, setting the Capellan Confederation against some of the splinter worlds of the Sarna Supremacy.
Plenty of good mech battle action, although the Capellans always seem to be able to dish out more than they take.
Interesting characters behind it, especially Aris Sung and his dealings with his mentor and leader Ty Wu Non.
Let down slightly by the predictability of various parts (without giving anything away), the enemy characters don't have a lot to do apart from being generic people to dislike.
